Gearbox inspection service

Unread post by Paul-R »

Came across this chap offering a strip down and inspection of your Citroen gearbox for a mere tenner.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Citroen-Manual-Ge ... 43a135f9c7

Could be useful for some people.

Having read the notes at the bottom of the advert, the offer seems to be:

For a tenner, he'll strip your gearbox (but not remove it from the car - that's extra), tell you if it's faulty then you can either pay serious money to have it rebuilt or buy a replacement - or take it away in bits whether or not it's faulty. :shock: :shock:

A bargain I for one can easily resist! :roll:
2012 Subaru Forester - capable but no magic carpet
2011 Grand C4 Picasso VTR+ 1.6HDi - not missed!
1995 Xantia Estate SX 1.9TD in Vert Vega "The Green Lady" - sadly missed
1998 Xantia 2.1 VXD Estate in Mauritius Blue - R.I.P. (terminal tin-worm)

It's hardly small print. Yes, he's hoping he'll get the job but you're welcome to take the bits away and rebuild it yourself knowing what needs replacing.
